Hear! Hear!
Great speech! Thanks for posting it.
Many great points are made, but I think one unique insight is very helpful:
“That human beings—not cultures—are created equal....”
That is what is fundamentally wrong with the commie-progressive idea of “multi-culturalism.”
It won’t lead us further away if we do what she said. Speak out against evil. Enforce laws that are not being enforced.
Did you bother to read or listen?
Re stopped reading, me too
That was a completely amazing speech.
"There is no cavalry coming. We are the cavalry. We are the last line of defense. Our civilization depends on us."
I posted this a few days ago. I loved Barbara Olson and Bari Weiss does her memory and cause justice. Great speech.
I did search on the title & nothing came up.
—”I kinda stopped reading after that.”
Interesting.
So you only read authors that you fully concur?
That would make for a very short reading list.
During COVID the “Anti-Semitism” label was applied liberally against many people.
I dabbled in hating Jews when I was young I’m ready to call it when I see it but not to engage in broad brush smear campaigns like I saw used against Trump supporters and opponents of COVID mandates-vaccines.
“Racists” or “Anti-Semites” commonly used labels.
What is “Evil”?
Enforcing laws like “Hate Crime” laws which are in the end speech control laws?
If the Muslim minority in this country wishes to boycott businesses over Israel why should I object especially if I boycotted Bud Light.
You obviously still have not read the article. She specifically said it isn’t about hate crime laws. It’s just your average laws against violence & mayhem in the streets. For instance, Virginia has laws against wearing masks during a protest. It was passed to stop KKK parades with everyone’s identity hidden. Now they’re letting Hamas supporters wear masks during protests & nothing is done.
If we want to keep our civilization, we have to protect it by enforcing our own rules. We’re not doing that. At least, those on the left seem to be immune to prosecution. Which should make all of us on the right very concerned.
Nikki Haley wants people to identify themselves on the Internet smells like the same idea.
No masks means facial recognition tech could be used.
Of course, FBI agents or DHS operatives may be behind masks that’s something to think about.
9/11 led to January 6th that’s why I will not join any bandwagon after October 7th other than to say let Israel do what it has to do in order to free hostages and secure its borders.
There can be no deals to create a Palestinian state either.
In this country the border must be secured so things don’t get worse internally I agree with Trump even Robert Kennedy is there.
I didn't. She has been married to a man and now is "married" to a woman. Yes it is absurd, but given that, Weiss is also a courageous fighter against trans-ideology and LGBTQ indoctrination of children. So I respect her public fights, even if I can't respect her private sexual proclivities.
Unfortunately, our "president" is fighting to stop Israel from doing the the former, and mandating they do the latter.
I don’t know what bandwagon you’re referring to. Bari Weiss is telling us that WE ARE THE LAST LINE OF DEFENSE. If we want to keep our freedom, & western civilization, WE have to start acting like we care. Period.
I wouldn't give Barium Wipes 4 seconds of my time.
This loony lesbo biotch was part of the problem - a YUGE part of the problem - at the NYeT from 2017-2020.
She is no conservative. She is no moderate. She spent her time at NYeT as one of Bennet's wacky-pack lackeys, trying to libwash Leftists of their outright intent to end the First Amendment. AG Pinch showed him the door for the Cotton op-ed, and threw her out behind him.
She portrays herself as a wannabe distaff version of Bill Maher, but she lacks his integrity and his chutzpah.
I know Bill is left-of-center but he is a last bastion of free freaking speech and more importantly, he NEVER WORKED FOR THE GODDAMN MSM.
No, no thanks, this article should be yanked.
You are very wise.
